Hasbro Goes All In On Star Wars Day With A Slew Of Collectibles Announcements

gameinformer.com:

From new TV shows to collectibles, Star Wars fans have plenty to celebrate as of late. May 4, which is informally Star Wars Day, always brings a hint of what is to come next. Lucasfilm and Disney kicked off the day with a second look at the forthcoming Obi-Wan Kenobi show, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment joined in on the festivities with Lego Star Wars DLC announcements, and now Hasbro is giving us a look at what is coming next in Star Wars action figures and collectibles.

Even with Obi-Wan Kenobi launching later this month, Hasbro's focus for products coming later in 2022 was mostly on Star Wars' past. The reveals were made during a short Hasbro Fan First livestream, which kicked off with a collection of previously released retro action figures. This set includes Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Han Solo, Chewbacca, and a stormtrooper.

The focus then shifted to classic Black Series figures. Rather than giving us a look at a line based on one film or show, Hasbro was all over the map, showing a new Princess Leia figure in her Endor attire. She arrives in 2023 and is available to pre-order from retailers starting tomorrow.

Figrin D'an is also getting a Black Series figure. He comes with three instruments, and like Leia, will be available to pre-order at various retailers starting tomorrow. He arrives in 2023.

Dan won't be rocking out alone. He will be joined by fellow bandmate Nalan Cheel, who is loaded up with gear. Oddly, he is arriving on store shelves much earlier than Dan and will be here fall 2022.

The Clone Wars animated show got some love with the reveal of a clone trooper from the 187th battalion, which debuted in season seven. No pre-order is available for this figure, but he'll be on shelves
